One Ugly Bug
« on: May 15, 2009, 03:17:05 am »
Found this critter in the park across the Street. Anyone recognize it? It was about two or three inches long.


Hmm Maybe I should have titled this thread Bugs Are Always Ugly. Got any ugly bugs where you're at?

Have you read Drood by Dan Simmons? I think there might be one of them in my brain. Or maybe it is all the laudanum talking.
I suggest the statue of Laanx gets turned into a statue of Parallo <3. An NPC could never replace the huge hole he left in my heart when he died  :'(

Looks like a scarab of some kind; maby a part of the dung beetle family. Hard to be sure with out cracking open a book and looking it up though.

It seems to be some kind of stag beetle according to people around here. Hard to say since there are apparently 1200 types that qualify for that name.
